Ever since I realized Nancy Caraway was Neil's wife, I wanted to read more about the "Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) and Cornel West.  On my book shelf next to Noam and Zinn is "The Cornel West Reader" by Cornel West.  Reading chapter Forty Four 'On Black-Brown Relationships" in the end--Cornel West is a black man.

 

The next chapter Forty Five "On Black Sexuality" I was moved to read:

 

"My favorite chapter ("Race Matters")... "My favorite (Cornel West) chapter is about the often overlooked issue of black sexuality--the elephant in the room no on dares mention.  Yet race and sexuality have always been linked in loaded ways.  We will never understand and change the experieces and perceptions of black bodies in our world Until we break the taboo of confronting candidly black sexuality and its myths." West 514
